Up and at 'em this morning..... going clothes shopping in a bit (my LEAST favourite passtime EVER) and going to treat myself to something fancy for lunch, then home, change and out on the lash for the arvo ;)

Just ordered the following:

Draper Tap Wrench
Goodridge Gear Cable set (carbon - again - long story)
3x SRAM powerlink

Tomorrow may order some other shiny bits :)

How about you 'orrible lot!

    no kids this wekend they all going to different houses to play with friends and sleep over, this means I can ride when ever I want and when I come back i can chill out instead of going straight into 'dad mode'

    I wish I didn't have to worry about kids, I've got my daughter, my wife is at work. When she gets back I'm going exploring along the canal to see if I can see any wooded areas where there may be something exciting to ride. Doubtful but worth a go. And just order 2 books, the disappearing city, and the living city both by frank Lloyd wright.

    Good morning!

    Today was SUPPOSED to be the first Practice Session for the TT. Looks like that's been cancelled now though (practice, not the TT) because of rain, mist and high winds.

    Going to do some fettling today so the 456 is in tip-top race condition for tomorrow.

    I may also see if I can fashion some kind of mount to fit the little camera to the Full Facer so I can catch some crashes :lol:

    Good morning freaks!

    Well as the postie has just delivered my copy of MBUK, I'll be reading that this morning (well looking at the pictures). Mrs C has already stolen the freebie phone sock! :shock:

    Hopefully the parcel postie (we have two different ones) will bring my uber-light-weight-goodyness this morning, so I can do some fettling.

    Will be shopping for compost later and I do believe we'll end up at Lidl and some bike stuffs will also be purchased.

    If the weather clears, got some work to do at the allotment, then back home for dinn0rz with the grandkids and a nice evening watching the Eurovision Song Contest.

    All in all, should be a good day. :D

    Greetings mortals.

    Postie delivered the usual bundle of month end type mail, however my photos from the event I did in April have arrived. Only 4 photos, all at a good resolution. Sadly the photographers were softies and didn't venture into the challenging terrain, so the photos are of the start/finish and moderate bridleway type terrain that their 2WD family cars could reach.

    Off to Brizzle today, a bit skeptical about carrying the bikes on the roof in this rain. Yes, it's piddling down here and I am just wondering about rain getting into the headset. Perhaps I should cover them in duct tape?

    Anyway I need to hit the road. I bid you all a fantastic weekend :¬)
